Dear Ashfame, it is not true what you say,

nowadays there is number of netbook out there with 10″ screens and you should beware about readability.

So there is not need to live under a rock to being surfing at 1024 screen resolution.

Yes you are right about the deep integration.

Matching themes this way is a solution but it comes with a performance penalty but its economical at initial stages.

In that guide, since WordPress is loaded too.

Instead of calling bbPress header file, we call the WordPress header file so as to bring the code from there. Same goes with the sidebar and footer.

That’s how forums are housed inside WordPress theme.

Thanks,

Would it be best to do the deep integration option or just copy the wordpress theme files over to the bb-press theme and have it load seperate?

So essentially you would just be styling the bbpress theme the same to match the wordpress theme?

I have read that by doing the deep integration you will have ‘double loads’ on all pages which would result in slowing down the site?

What do you think?

I had a read over your guide earlier on and i got a little lost when i reached here >

Replace bb_get_header(); ?> by get_header(); ?> <div id=”content class=”narrowcolumn” role=”main”> in all files.

Similarly replace <?php bb_get_footer(); by </div><?php get_sidebar(); get_footer(); in all files.

Thanks for the reply, i have installed bbpress successfully now, but i cant seem to get the forums to match with my theme >

http://www.myweddingreviews.co.uk

http://www.myweddingreviews.co.uk/forum

I want the forum to be embedded inside of my site, not a different skin if you follow?

Finding it hard to figure out how to do this, i thought it would have been alot easier.

Any ideas mate?

Like if you have forums in a folder named ‘forums’, then create a page with the slug as ‘forums’.

Hello I am from Lithuania Country, Europe, I like bbpress its simple and safe forum cms, I wanna create in Lithuania bbpress support I translate this forum, create a website bbpress.lt, can i get your permision?

Thank you

[Rich Pedley]

updated the demo, you’ll see a few widgets in the sidebar (ticket already open…)

I only see akismet as being a core plugin out of that list myself.

I know I’ll be writing a few plugins for it myself once it gets to that stage.

I think JJJ has said that other method of integration may be possible, but by going the theme route it does allow for better templating of the forum.
